I’m Looking For Love
Love’s stories are told, from days of old, “once upon a time”
Heroes, and villains, forever remembered in song, and verse and rhyme
But they are just fables, legends, and tales designed to make you feel
I need something more, than stories and lore, I need to know love is real.
All of my life it’s been heartache and strife, disappointment, rejection, and shame
And though the tears that I’ve cried, long since have dried, deep inside I still fell the pain
I’ve tried to forget, but it seems there’s a debt, that I somehow can’t seem to pay
I need to break through, but what can I do, I simply don’t know the way.
Ch: I’m looking for love, and all that it means
I’m looking for love, outside of all that I’ve seen
Cause I need to know, what’s false and what’s true
I’m looking for love, I’m looking for You.
I’ve heard love is patient, I’ve heard love is kind, constant, faithful and true
It’s not jealous or proud, boastful or loud, it isn’t self-seeking or rude
I’ve heard it protects, believes only the best, always trusts, and never lets go
O where can I find a love of this kind, surely someone must know.
Ch:
They say You are love, come down from above, to heal and set us all free
But if You’re really there, and really do care, why has all this happened to me
I don’t mean to complain, but the depth of the pain, insists that I have my say
If love is real, show me the deal, and I’ll decide if I want to play.

Where Is The Key

Where Is The Key
Looking for meaning but coming up empty
Knowing things should fit, but they’re falling apart
Searching without finding, testing without tasting
Where is the key that will open my heart.
So many voices, saying “I have the answer”
Solutions are found in recess of time
Come won’t you join me here on my journey
The key to your heart, lies in your mind.
So you think and you think, and you think you’re progressing
As reams of information fill up you mind
But what you can’t see is that you’re really regressing
And the boat that you’re seeking has left you behind.
Folly! Folly! All of it’s folly
Striving for something, you can never attain
For just when you feel, you’re finally arriving
You wake up to find someone’s pulling your chain.
What is a dream?, what is a fantasy
Are they not both, just a bit of the same
How do you know your perception is accurate
Maybe someone’s just playing a game.
Where lies the truth? Where lies the fiction?
Is life a reality, or is it a sham
If all that I know were to fall down around me
Would I still be the person I think that you am.
Looking for meaning but coming up empty
Knowing things should fit, but they’re falling apart
Is this the end, or is it just the beginning
Where is the key that will open my heart.

You Were Made To Love

You Were Made To Love
Crafted by the hands of a father, you were built as a gift for the son
Every timber, every frame, every window, reflected the depth of his love
And somewhere in the midst of the creating, he placed in you a part of his soul
It was his heart that his family should be cared for, and he knew you would love them as your own.
Ch: You were made to love, you were made to give
You were made to stand the test of time, you were made to live
It was your legacy, to keep the family safe and warm
It is your destiny to be a refuge from the storm.
But the son wasn’t like the father, for somehow he just couldn’t see
You were more than simply wood and mortar, you were part of the family.
But, you were sold, when he left to seek his fortune, and one by one you passed through many hands
All the promises within went undelivered, as you waited for your chance to love again.
Ch:
On down through the years you were neglected, for somehow no one saw your need
And deep within, the pain of the rejection, took it’s toll, and left you heart to bleed.
And at times it seemed that this would be your story, at times it seemed that this might be your end
But the soul of the man still lived within you, and he whispered of a chance to love again.
Ch:
Now not so long ago one autumn evening, you met the one who would finally see
You were more than simply wood and mortar, you had soul, and were part of the family
Came the day that you had long awaited, she asked you to forgive all of the past
And as she opened up her heart to receive you, you knew your chance to love again, had come at last.

He Will Cover You With His Feathers
To all who’ve been neglected, rejected, and abused
There is One who knows everything that you’ve been through
And He has the answer to all your pain
And if you’ll let Him, He’ll take it all away.
Ch: He will cover you with His feathers, under His wings you shall find rest
He will be your source of comfort, your strength to stand the test
And His love will be your shield, through all the storms of life
He will cover you with His feathers, under His wings you shall abide.
To all who walk in darkness, depression, and despair
There is One who sees, there is One who cares
And He has the answer, to all your fear
And if you’ll let Him, He will draw you near.
To all who walk in bondage, to all who live in chains
There is One who understands, He was tempted in every way
And He has the answer, He holds the key
And if you’ll let Him, He will set you free.
To all who have lost their way, are broken and confused
There is One who knows, and He can show you what to do
He has the answer, He knows the way
And if you’ll let Him, He’ll walk with you today.
Br: You are His joy, His treasure, and you’re precious in His sight
You are His pride, His pleasure, and the apple of His eye

Precious In His Sight
From before the dawn of time, the Lord had you on His mind,
Looking down through the centuries to where you are today.
He planned the day that you were born, and by His hands you were formed,
And now He’s standing right beside you and beside you He will stay....because
Ch: You’re precious in the sight of the Lord.
You’re precious in the sight of the Lord.
All of Heaven celebrated the day that you were born.
You’re precious in the sight of the Lord.
Now, you may not think it’s true, after all that you’ve been through,
But pain has a way of painting the way you feel and see.
You may think He doesn’t care, when in fact He’s always there,
Waiting for you to turn to Him, so He can set you free...because
Ch:
Now you need to understand, He has a purpose and a plan,
His love for you is real, you have a destiny,
If you’ll trust Him with your life, you’ll surely shine His light,
For His love will mold and shape you into all that you should be...because

Come Unto Me

Come Unto Me
When the worries of this world get you down
When you need a friend and no one can be found
When you feel your life is empty, and no one seems to care
Lift your voice to Jesus, you know He’ll always hear. For He said...
Ch: Come unto me, lay your burdens at my feet and I will give you rest
Come unto me, lay your weary head upon my shoulder
I will be your refuge, I will be your strength
Come to me, I’ll give you rest.
When the fear in your life is much too real
When then pain in your heart won’t seem to heal
When storms are all around you, and you don’t know what to do
Lift your voice to Jesus, He will see you through. For He said...
Ch:
It doesn’t matter how hard the problem seems
Jesus has the answer, He knows your every need
So in every situation, no matter what you’re going through
Lift your voice to Jesus, that’s all you have to do. For He said...
